Dearest Kino

deletedabout 10 years

Since my 'rehabilitation' I have done my best to avoid causing or being a part of any major drama on this site, and I have done it quite well. So when I discovered that you'd been account sharing with Eris as a mod, and let him do hundreds of reports just so you could use ErisCache and ErisSearch to search for people talking about you in games, and Eris was busily forum suspending moderators, I merely let Vancy know that it's possible to still log into an account after the password is changed, via cookie sessions, and agreed not to post this on the forums or cause any drama.

When you were remodded, and playing with Eris in Sandbox & PM'ing him on his evasion accounts, I also ignored this, because it was none of my business, I had told Vancy my concerns, I had warned you to stop, and it was none of my business. Two instantly demoddable offences that you got away with.

However, when you lied to Josh and told him that I'd outed his alts (which, due to the fact I didn't have ErisCache back then, I didn't even know - perhaps you should try a more plausible cover story next time), it became my business. I dislike it when people lie about me, strangely. And when your arguing with Eris led to him causing these mass refunds that have caused me to waste a week of my life running for a trophy that's now gone down the drain, that annoyed me even more.

If you're going to manipulate intelligent people, be aware of the consequences. I never knew Josh's alts, therefore I couldn't have told Vancy or anyone other mod what they were. Don't use me an excuse for things you've done and bring down someone's anger on me when I've done nothing but favours for you by not outing this before.

Oh, and as I did warn you before, I suppose it's natural to say "I told you so".

Best ask Josh to rehost and give you access to it then.

what's eriscache?


Database of BanID's that tells you everyone's alts. Think the old spreadsheets; but constantly updated by a mod account running a script and hosted online.

Frankly the tightening up of refunds to fix that problem was my greatest (and perhaps only lasting) legacy from when I was admin.

No I just don't think one person should take the fall for something many have done.


That is exactly how examples and precedent work, one person takes it and the rest are intimidated. EM moderators get a free pass to do any behavior or favoritism because of just that attitude you state, with Vancy/Lucid failing to properly dismantle the circlejerk where it rots most

If you're advocating the abolition of mods: the utterly unplayable games is what was wrong with it. The last couple of months of 2.0 were trash. Almost every trophy was won by cheats, spammers & throwers ran wild, and the decent players were quitting in droves. Some came back later, but some never did.


I wasn't, I was asking for your perspective on the site before mods were a thing.

Even though we have reports and what, wouldn't you say that people rely on reports a bit too much now? It seems like for some people, reporting is the first thing they do when something doesn't go their way.


I think this was a major problem a year ago, which was rectified by the extreme tightening up of the refunds policy. I no longer believe this to be a problem.

This is actually a really good example of the mod team policies evolving because of a problem though. Something which needs to happen again for the lack of professionalism/care.

I shan't dismiss your sentiments, but I also feel like they don't really reflect on my own. I agree with what you say here, but my discussion is more directed at the fact that she is ONLY being judged for a mistake. People need to understand that negatives are not the only thing that exist in a person when they make a mistake.


You're right, but people will always look at the negatives, especially on a site built around deception and lies.

Also, Riot's making a good point about the mods and professionalism/circle-jerking


My points are usually good, frankly.
